We deliver a range of in-home services to older people to help them live independently at home. These include home visiting, home maintenance and domestic assistance services.
These are delivered by our staff together with a team of volunteers who bring their own skills and experience to the services.
Home Visiting
The home visiting program provides older people with social interaction and seeks to build or re-build connections with others. Our home visiting staff show genuine interest in hearing what our clients have to say which helps develop friendships, sense of connectedness, confidence and enjoyment in life.
Home Maintenance
Our Home Maintenance service assists with minor repairs like changing light globes or washers through to gardening. The program relies on our friendly and professional volunteer handypersons and gardeners who are fully insured and have satisfied police checks. The service responds to the needs of clients who are no longer able to fully maintain their homes and gardens, and is especially welcomed by those who enjoyed gardening but are no longer able to undertake it.

- Vacuuming
